SUICIDE
Baker Heber Ends His Earthly Career
by Taking Arsenic.

On last Wednesday afternoon, just after
we had gone to press, our people were horri-
fed to learn that one of Napoleon's business
men, H. Heber, had committed suicide. As
near as we can get at them the facts in the
case are about as follows: For several days
Heber was noticed to act strangely and upon
every occasion possible would abuse his wife
and children. On Tuesday night he again
began to abuse his wife in their bedroom
and attempted to take her life. He followed
her down stairs, and she ran out on the side
walk, between one and two o'clock, and
screamed murder. Help came to her rescue,
and the infuriated husband returned to the
house and went to bed, A short time after
he was taken with cramps and medical aid
was summoned, when it was found that he
had taken poison. The following note was
found, written in his hand writing 81 have
taken arsenic. I am tired of living. H..
Heber." The unfortunate man fingered un-
til 2 p. M, when death relieved him. He
was buried ON Thursday. The affair is a
shocking and unfortunate one, and the bel
reaved wife and children have the sympathy
of all in their deep afliction. Mr.. Heber
had been resident of Napoleon for num-
ber of years, carrying on the bakery bust
ness, in which he seemed to be quite success
full, and in appearance seemed to be an in
offensive person and quiet, peaceable citi-

DROWNED.
Freddie Honeck Meets With q
Watery Grave.

Last Tuesday evening, about o'clock,
Freddie Honeck, aged about years, son of
Otto Honeck, in company with his brother
Arthur, aged years, went to the canal, got a
small row-boat, and started for the Hoop
Factory to get some hoops for the purpose of
building a hennery. Freddie on getting into
the boat picked up board and substituted
it for an oar, standing about the center of
the boat, and his little brother sitting behind
him. They had not gone far when he under
took to cross over to the float of logs; the
boat was going at slow speed, and he not
paying particular attention to how close he
was to the logs, all of sudden the boat
struck them, throwing him out sideways
His little brother at once called to George
Walters, who was working a short distance
down the canal, but he not knowing what had
happened did not respond at once, button
seeing people running started; little Arthur
being so excited he could not at first tell
what happened. By this time crowd OF
willing hands were present, and soon were
in the water searching for the drowned boy.
VIM. Theek, one of the rescurers, stepped on
the body about 8 feet from the shore; the body
was brought to the surface but life was
extinct, having been In the water about half
an hour. All sympathize with the heart
broken parents in this their hour of sorrow.

G. f., Clements Excursion.
Communicated by one who was there.l
The most enjoyable affair of the season for
a number of our Germans was undoubtedly
the excursion given on Sunday last, by G. F.
Clement to his pupils and their parents. AT
9 O'Clock, the children gathered in their
school room, laden with flowers and other
souveniers for their beloved teacher. After
a short drill they started in elegant line, two
abreast, from the school house, marched
down Reiser's street as far as the rink, CROSS
ed over to Washington street and thence
down Perry street to the river where the
boat was ready and their parents and friends,
"a in number, waiting for them. When
seated, the children with happy voices sang
one of their sweet German songs, and after
this the boat took to the river under the
music furnished by Messrs. Delventhal and
Adams. While all this was going on, none
of the bystanders could fail to notice the
tender care which Mr.. Clement showed to
every one of the little ones that were entrust-
ed to his guidance by loving parents, ana ms
success as a teacher can nolonger bs secret.
After a most delightful ride OF about n
hours. Kings grove was reached ana mere
the day was spent in games and sports, IN
music ndsinging.i At about SIX O'Clock the
party started for home and under the glor-
ions sky of the evening, one song after anoth-
er ewelied the air, and under the strains of
"bone sweet home" the boat landed. The
sTeursion was treat Of Mr.. Clement and it
will always be kindly rememberedby child
rem, parents and friends. n.

SUDDEN DEATH.
A Man Dies in His Corn Field.

On Saturday last Mr.. Jas. Murray, of Flat
rock township, died suddenly while in his
corn field. He started out in the morning
to cultivate his corn field near the house
in apparent good health; sometime after
Mrs. Murray noticed the horse standing still,
and itcontinuing to do so, she thought some
thing was wrong in the field, and upon re-
pairing to it found her husband laying on
the ground dead. 1t is supposed death re-
suited from hemorrhage of the the brain.
The call from life to death was sudden, and
is but another reminder that in the midst of
life we are in death. The bereaved wife has
the sympathy of all.

Arm Scalded.
Last Monday night Henry Rieger, an en-

we're accident, and one which will probably
lay him up for some time. He in company
with another workman were engaged in
cleaning out what is called "mash tub, "
and to keep it perfectly clean they are COM
pelled to use boiling water, which is thrown
through a hose. While this was being done
Mr.. R. had hold of the hose, which under the
heavy pressure, bursted, throwing the boil
ing water all over his left arm, scalding it in
a frightful manner from the shoulder to the
hand. 1t is bad burn, and will require the
utmost care to save him from being Grip
pie for life.

Narrow Escape.

Narrow Escape.
Last Thursday party of Germans were at
the depot awaiting the train going East, and
with them was boy about 6 years of age.
Becoming impatient, the little fellow wan
dered around, and at last entered the ladies
closet; nothing was thought of him for a
while, when fear began to be felt that some
thing was wrong, and he could not be found.
A search Of the closet was at last made, and
imagine the mothers horror ON looking
down into the vault, at seeing her child at
the bottom, with nothing but hand and
one side Of his face protruding from the
Hlth. An alarm was at once given. when
help arrived, and the little fellow was
brought TO the surface, and none too soon,
for had he remained IN his horrible position
Ave minutes longer he would have smoth-
cred.
